Nellie has moved to her mother's native London, where she is studying creative writing and journalism. The breakneck pace and buzzing energy of London life suits Nellie well - she has published articles in several prominent magazines, and in her free time, she is working on a collection of short stories inspired by Igbo mythology. She visits Barcelona during every term break and holiday.She has now been in a relationship for a year. Her partner, a sculptor, shares a similar background to her - they were born to a Black British mother and a Korean father. They are enamoured with Nellie, and attend all of her readings. They have already visited Barcelona twice, and are admired by the family.Iseul is about to start her final year of highschool. She has spent her summer - and the last few summers - volunteering for wildlife organisations all over the world. She wants to pursue a degree in wildlife conservation after finishing highschool.Baz is in middle school. He is passionate about coding and robotics, often building gadgets and gizmos under Tino's tutelage. He has not been neglecting the piano either - he has recently performed at a school recital.Ada has become integrated into the family - Nellie, Iseul, and especially Baz see her almost as a sister. She has thrown herself into school theatre and dance. At school, she is a social butterfly, the unofficial leader of a friend group which includes Baz, and it is she who decides what games they play in the playground. She is especially enamoured with her eldest cousin, Nellie, and dreams about being a writer like her.Tino has taken a sabbatical to focus on community projects in impoverished areas of South America, West Africa, and Southeast Asia. He's in a different place every month, which leaves him less time for his family than he'd like - but now that his eldest has flown the coop, he supposes it's practice for what's to come.Chika's latest documentary has been her most famous since, and has won several international rewards, and warranted invitations to speak at important conferences. Thus, like her husband, Chika is travelling a lot, though she tries to spend as much time as she can with her family. When both Tino and her are away, though, she knows she can trust her younger sister to take care of Iseul, Baz, and Ada.Nnenne has published her debut novel to critical acclaim. She works from home, still focusing on freelance writing and editing, but she has also started running creative writing workshops which have proved popular. She and Ada have grown comfortable and happy living with the family in Barcelona.Polly the cat sadly died at 14 of cancer. Now, the only remaining pets are Cinnamon, who still adores Baz most and follows him around like he's still a puppy, and Coriander, who lives blissfully in the garden, tended to carefully by Iseul and Baz.
